Jack white tickets secured for my son's birthday! It will be his first gig and hopefully he'll be over the moon. I'm a bit chuffed too!

Ah, springtime in Scotland. And I'm trying to move house. Fuck. It snowed when we moved in too 😕

Off to see Angine de Poitrine in October. Hopefully flying to Bristol if there's still fuel available. Ditto with holiday coming up 🤞

Moving house this weekend... Not looking forward to it. Renting sucks

Unexpected, but I'm willing to give it a go!

Singles you wonder why you bought 27 years ago...

Trying to decide between Gorillaz or Bill Callahan's album regarding the last of my Christmas money

Might be a bit more of an interest to @thenighttrain.co.uk Any sightings?

This is so frigging accurate

Rewatching Northern Exposure and it has to be one of the loveliest, gentle, heartwarmIng and funniest TV ever made. Nice antidote to this wicked world.

My weird way into Kraftwerk. It's brilliant by the way

Help, I'm at a P 1-4 school disco!

In reality, the only answer is 'The Human Centipede'. But I think no one wants to admit they've seen it!

Discogs app kicks me out, can't remember password, reset password, get kicked out of app a month later... Rinse and repeat

Drop an album that was important to you when you were nineteen. A lot of albums in 95 I've come to post 95. The others I like a lot, but there's something about Marks Keyboard repair that stuck with me.

Short track speed skating is proper drama! #olympics

For god's sake, why give away the results on the iPlayer Olympic highlights thumbnails. What's f'in wrong with the bbc! More 'man shouting at clouds' will resume tomorrow...

I wish the BBC would break up the events on the iPlayer coverage of the Olympics, instead of just bunging it all together. Having to FF to guess when an event will start is a pain.

@thenighttrain.co.uk thanks S&P for the stickers. Let the low level vandalism begin! Was a bit confused at first at who this "Bob" person was... Great postcard btw

Stickers have arrived. We'll be sending them out this week. If you haven't asked for any but would like some, send us a DM with an address to send 'em.

Due to kids and other factors, I haven't made bread in years. My son loves his grandpa's soda bread, so we've had a go this morning.

Categorise under 'music I always forget that I enjoy'.

Going on from this, there is a certain type of male singer nowadays, where every song has a baritone "woo whoo woo whoo" bit sung in it. Grating as fuck. I could name one, but I always hear them on the radio and think it's the same singer.

Watch a lovely doc on the Wrecking Crew by the son of Tommy Tedesco. I knew they played on a lot of records, but my god! Did any American band play their instruments in the 60's? Was there a British version of the Wrecking Crew? Chas and Dave?

Post a pic of the venue where you saw your first concert and the artist.

#NP Getting through my Jazzman purchases (mainly in the car). Subjecting the kid to this (it's called education...) Mighty fine so far. Grogu approved. Just don't ask which drugs he's been taking.

Brilliant

@presentcorrect.bsky.social the Japanese stationary awards!

Happy New Year! Saturday marks 163 years since the world's first underground railway, the Metropolitan Railway, opened between Paddington and Farringdon. So this week's theme is the London Underground! -- 'Paddington Station at Night' 1992 Doreen Fletcher doreenfletcherartist.com

My friends in Austria sent this and I can't stop watching...wait for the end. 🤗💜

Class #NP

iTunes (yes I still use an iPod) has never got album artwork correct. 85% failure rate to be sure.

Oh fuck, Jazzman records have a half price cd sale. I may be skint by the end of this post...

My advice, should you need it: put some music on. Repeat this advice until you run out of music. Then go find some more. Also works with books and reading. Or art and looking/experiencing.

@vinylstupidity.bsky.social utter utter #vinylstupidity Revinyl Records by Revinyl Records — Kickstarter share.google/U4VUKEzpfEZJ...

Saturday, it's the FINAL Block Party for the FINAL Huey Show on BBC 6 Music! Closing out my 3 year residency with a mix about the work of George Clinton, Parliament & Funkadelic. P-Funk all the way, as we celebrate the 50th anniversary of 'Mothership Connection'. 'Tis the season to be funky.... ✌️

Sod leftovers (there aren't any). We're having home made pulled pork tacos

Yesterday's music gifts. Plus a generous £50 from one of my sisters in law to spend on tunes. (I suspect that includes my bday too)

Bugger, I have to go down the supermarket to get stuff I forgot on Christmas eve.

I was thinking that Tom Waits should make a Christmas album. Correct me if He's already made one.

The Holdovers is one of the most perfect Christmas films.

Merry Christmas Bluesky. Starting the day off with some ace Ace

Postie's been

F off Terry's. Don't sell normal milk chocolate in the orange chocolate packaging. Scam!

Tis the season to muck up the first batch of mince pies.

Popped into the #chazza today. Left MGMT second album because it was too scratchy up.

Just saw @stereolabgroop.bsky.social in Glasgow. Magnificent. Here's a blurry gig picture to prove it.

#NP some Japanese jazz from the great series curated by @thejazzdad.bsky.social #jazzsky

Here's something to ruin your morning.
